masculinism
Where it comes from
From masculine + -ism, as opposed to feminism.
noun masculinisms
- An ideology of masculinity or of male rights; considered as opposed to feminism. While only women can participate in the building of a feminist culture, without the interference — however well-intentioned — of men, men can facilitate that process by refusing to participate in the old order of masculinism.
- Mannishness. The greater part of these various anatomical peculiarities and functional anomalies point, more or less clearly, to the prevalence among inverts of a tendency to infantilism, combined with feminism in men and masculinism in women
